paul ryan's foil on the budget committee in the house. again, a young, sort of take charge, a charismatic leader. he raised a lot of money. he ran the democratic congressional campaign committee for two cycles. so, he has a lot of pole. complicated a little bit by the fact that he and hoyer our friends and they represent the same state and run in the same circles. he was the assistant to the speaker in nancy pelosi's last term as speaker. that seems to be the person who bubbles to the top the most. and a question about what debbie wasserman schultz will do. democratic committee chairman. no one does that job to long. she is looking at a way to leadership -- i hate to use terms like the smart money, but the smart money seems to be if pelosi wants to know if a successor and get behind somebody, it would be chris van hollen. >> that shakes. drama makes what is going on in the senate look tame by comparison. what is the light of the land on the senate side? >> i think it is pretty tame in the senate. with senate democrats adding two seats --

i think they needed paul ryan on board. romney liked paul ryan but the campaign -- the only campaign that gave them a chance to win was blaming obama for everything that happened and being as vague as possible about the alternative, right. saying the economy is bad people are arguing in washington, we'll make it better. they didn't have any support for their specific alternatives. they didn't want to make it a contest or specific vision so they needed ryan on board in a way. but they didn't want people examining their alternative. >> john: i think you're right. what do you think is next for the g.o.p. and what do you think we can expect in the weeks to come with the fiscal cliff struggle? >> this is also something i've written about quite a bit. i don't expect a lot of cooperation between the parties in the second term except immigration reform. on the fiscal issue it is different. the republicans just have to make a deal with obama because the absent of the deal, they get way, way worse than nothing. they opposed almost ev
